An advanced modeling strategy for notched ceramic matrix composite coupons with patch reinforcement was proposed to investigate the failure mechanisms. This model considered the tailored fiber–placed (TFP) yarn details obtained from the design phase and the embedded element concept which was used to successfully overcome the meshing difficulties. Inter-ply “glue” layers were simulated using the surface-based contact cohesive element method, so the delamination due to interfacial material discontinuity and damage can be well reproduced and analyzed. For composite ply, the energy-based composite progressive damage model that is independent of the mesh size was applied. Virtual test campaign was performed with a variety of geometrical and material parameters, and the damage and failure mechanisms based on the stress analysis can be revealed to support the design optimization of patch reinforcement.

Increasing demands on titanium alloys in aerospace applications have driven a push towards deeper understanding of their behaviour in service. This extends from component performance during planned operation to damage mechanisms and how parts may ultimately fail. Investigation of damage and failure requires a comprehensive framework of techniques in order to identify a root cause, and further the understanding of failure mechanisms. It is crucial to defining and improving component lifetimes via a design optimisation feedback loop. This paper presents an overview of the techniques used in state-of-the-art industrial titanium alloy failure investigation, highlighting the inherent reciprocal links to frontline research and the need for constant innovation.
